CARDIFF, United Kingdom: Wales prop Aaron Jarvis has been ruled out of Saturday’s Test match against Australia after suffering a knee ligament injury.
Jarvis sustained the problem during his side’s 33-10 defeat against New Zealand on Saturday and will undergo further assessment yesterday before it is decided if the Welsh star needs surgery.
Wales head coach Warren Gatland, who has put back his team annoucement until Thursday, hopes to receive better news over the fitness of lock Bradley Davies ahead of this weekend’s Millennium Stadium clash.
Davies was hospitalised after being struck from behind in the second minute by New Zealand hooker Andrew Hore, but has now rejoined his team-mates.
“Bradley Davies is back in the Wales camp after spending some time in hospital on Saturday night,” a Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) statement read.
“He is recovering from severe concussion and following the appropriate return to play protocols.
“He is not training today, but it is still too soon to reach any further conclusions.” AFP
